Field to plate growing interest at Nobu Lanai

March 6, 2014

Nobu Lanai restaurant, located at the Four Seasons Resort Lanai at Manele Bay, offers fresh flavors on its unique and innovative menu - fresh from its own farm, that is.

The half-acre Nobu Garden is home to a variety of herbs and vegetables, including baby lettuce, squash, tomatoes, scallions, watermelon radish, asparagus, red beets, carrots, green beans and cilantro.

Ingredients particularly relevant to the menu at Nobu include daikon, Japanese eggplant, edamame, shishito peppers, cucumber flowers and sesame. The produce is harvested daily to ensure freshness for the evening's diners.

Dishes, such as the lobster salad with spicy lemon dressing and the big-eye ahi tuna sashimi salad with Matsuhisa dressing, incorporate 100 percent of what is grown there.

The produce is grown organically with no herbicides or pesticides and the garden is cared for by Four Seasons' staff led by Executive Chef Sean Mell. Guests can even take a tour and see up-close how the garden looks. For more details, call (800) 321-4666 or visit www.fourseasons.com/lanai.
